Currently, a NULL pointer dereference will happen in function
`dma_fence_enable_sw_signaling()` (at line 615), in case `chain`
is not allocated in `mock_chain()` and this function returns
`NULL` (at line 86). See below:

drivers/dma-buf/st-dma-fence-chain.c:
 86         chain = mock_chain(NULL, f, 1);
 87         if (!chain)
 88                 err = -ENOMEM;
 89
 90         dma_fence_enable_sw_signaling(chain);

drivers/dma-buf/dma-fence.c:
 611 void dma_fence_enable_sw_signaling(struct dma_fence *fence)
 612 {
 613         unsigned long flags;
 614
 615         spin_lock_irqsave(fence->lock, flags);
			       ^^^^^^^^^^^
				    |
			  NULL pointer reference
			  if fence == NULL

 616         __dma_fence_enable_signaling(fence);
 617         spin_unlock_irqrestore(fence->lock, flags);
 618 }

Fix this by adding a NULL check before dereferencing `fence` in
`dma_fence_enable_sw_signaling()`. This will prevent any other NULL
pointer dereference when the `fence` passed as an argument is `NULL`.

Instead of the larger patch, should line 88 here just do a "return
-ENOMEM" instead?

Nope. I would have to add a `goto` to skip `dma_fence_enable_sw_signaling(chain)`.

I originally thought of that, but as other _signaling() functions have
sanity-checks inside, I decided to go with that solution.

This bug has been there since Sep 2022. So, adding a sanity check inside that
function should prevent any other issue of this same kind to enter the codebase
and stay there for years.

I'm trying to remove those sanity checks for years since they are hiding 
problems instead of getting them fixed.

Calling dma_fence_enable_sw_signaling with a NULL pointer is a coding 
error and not a recoverable runtime error.

The test case should be fixed instead.

Christian.
